Pond Boss Forums AQUATIC VEGETATION Controlling unwanted plants Help me guys weird scum

Hey guys need some help. First off I got a bloom goin like I've never seen before thick like pea soup with a really nasty wierd scum.. Little background pond is down 2-2.5ft probably between 4-5" of rain in the last couple weeks.. I had major FA problem going I sprayed it all down with cutrine plus didn't seem too work but it all dissapeared after all the rain now this nasty blue baked looking FA is popping up. Here's some pics tell me what you think then I'll tell you what I'm thinking..

I think it's dead FA decaying.

Ditto.

I would try and rake it out onto the shoreline and let it dry and them remove with a pitchfork.

I recently did the same in one of my production ponds that went bonkers with FA this summer.

Most of it's so thin you wouldn't be able to rake it.. The black and really dark stuff I could but the rest is just a thin film.. And the real blue stuff I think is some kind of residual from the cutrine plus (it's blue).. What's you guys thoughts on the mega bloom??

My FA is the exact same blue as you have in the pictures and mine is untreated.

Huh that's kinda weird I only have the blue stuff where I really sprayed cutrine on thick.. Of course that's where I had te thickest FA.. Just seems kinda od to me never had this blue stuff before and never used cutrine before this year..

So were you thinking it's copper?

Not necessarily.. Just some kind of leftover from the cutrine plus more the coloring agent than copper maybe..
